Godly Alternatives - He Gave Me Life
(God is not an option, He gives the options and man chooses.)
I can think. I can rejoice. I can be happy. I can think and do something. I can create anything that will bring my heart joy. I can eat and be satisfied. I can have sorrows, pains and challenges too.
I know things. I can remember. I can learn something, something that will make my life better and meaningful. I know the way - I know my parents, I know my friends, I know my environment, I know the way to the kitchen and the way out of the bathroom.
I can smell. I can perceive. I can notice. I can discover. I can share - share with all. I know when I feel OK and when I am sick.
I know good and bad and I can understand the difference between the two. I know honour, I know shame, I understand both perfectly. I know pride, that it is folly. I know the way of righteousness and the way of peace.
I know when good comes and i also know how to be good and to do good. All these and more were fashioned in me since I was created. More importantly, I have a choice - a choice either to preserve, treasure and enjoy this life or to take it away.
I thank God. He gave me life and I am grateful to Him but what do I do with this gift? This life that He has freely given to me?
Micah 6:8
He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God
Psalms 34:12-14
(12) What man is he that desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good?
(13) Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
(14) Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
